I just saw this post. So can you please tell me the story about how you got them to honor warranty claims while rooted? Maybe if I had called back a few times I could have got it done. I've honestly never had to even use a warranty on a phone in the past, they have all been really great.
[Galaxy Note5 General] sand1303:
so let me understand, u rooted knowing it will void your warranty, then u get pissed that they wont fix it free of charge because the warranty is voided? lol thats kinda funny. don't get me wrong i would try and get it fixed through warranty myself even after i rooted but u can't be pissed about them not fixing it if u knowingly voided it. with that out of my system,

who does your friend use? is it tmobile as well? if it is sprint its an easy fix. if not have u looked into other 3rd party coverage?
[Galaxy Note5 General] seh6183:
I'm not answering any of your questions until you re-read what I wrote and actually comprehend what I said because it appears that you didn't understand a word of it.
[Galaxy Note5 General] sand1303:
i think i got your point the first time lol. i have rooted many phones and voided many warranties but you whole point was you are considering leaving samsung because they won't warranty a phone u knowingly broke the warranty for. is that not your point?
[Galaxy Note5 General] seh6183:
We're you the person I spoke with when I called Samsung? It sure seems like it.

My point was. The volume button has nothing to do with me rooting the phone. Get it?
[Galaxy Note5 General] sand1303:
i am fully aware of the volume button having nothing to do with software on your phone. i do not disagree with that one bit. i totally agree one has nothing to do with the other. i was merely pointing out that u knowingly voided the warranty and am now mad u can't use the warranty. i don't think rooting should void any kind of hardware warranty whatsoever but simple fact is it does. sometimes we can get around it sometimes we can't. i don't blame u for trying i would have done the same. i think you maybe should change the title to something like

~damn it was worth a shot

~i am pissed at samsung but more pissed at myself

~i couldn't get over on samsung this time

~i broke the rules........and the rules won

so does he use t mobile as well? did yall look into something like square trade? a third party warranty

i use sprint and have gotten many replacements after rooting. in fact my note 5 is probably the first phone i actually have not ever rooted in years

im just busting balls man don't get mad. i didn't notice you had been around here so long till i took a look at your post count lol.
[Galaxy Note5 General] Brava27:
What a silly post. I have had 8 different Sammy devices without issues and when I did, I got the repaired rooted without issues here in Canada. I've rooted every device and enjoyed all Samsung has had to offer especially when I break my screens and they fixed for free, rooted.

[Galaxy Note5 General] calinormy:
I really understand your frustation BUT: why it is samsung's fault for violating guaranty terms? Two years ago everybody was complaining about PLASTIC. As a end user you could replace almost everything on your phone. Removable battery for long term usage, camera module, mainboard, sim tray, everything. No, WE all asked for metal and glass. Now we have metal and glass and fixed battery and almost impossible repairs. But our phones look nice.

BTW: Sony - locked bootloader, no root. No custom rom without unlocking bootloader officialy trough Sony servers. So zero guaranty

HTC, LG - the same. Try to find software for your region.

There is no ideal device to play with custom roms and not void your warranty!

BTW. 1. You should try to install official rom including bootloader etc and try again at Samsung.

2. You could buy a dummy note 5 -the presentation model and go to a repair shop to excenge your volume rocker. Except for mainboard, everything inside is the same as full functional note. You could sell some parts like camera module, case with full display, S- Pen etc and get your money back, even more.
[Galaxy Note5 General] seh6183:
I'm not going to sit here and argue with you people about the purpose of my post. If you don't get it im sorry. I'm moving on now. Thanks for those that were helpful. Good luck to those that are clearly lacking reading comprehension lol
[Galaxy Note5 General] mbolinao:
I feel for you. Though I haven't had any broken phones I rooted from the past, I also think that "obvious" hardware issues should be exempted from voiding the warranty after rooting. But manufacturers don't want us rooting our phones so we can use their own software that they built for us which took them years to develop (although we all know that pure android really performs way better), and also for us to use the bloatware they include (which probably paid Samsung big money to have their software pre-installed in Samsung phones).

So completely voiding the phone's warranty upon root is their way to combat all those, even if Samsung is completely aware that "most" hardware issues are unrelated to rooting (although rooting can also damage hardware components like burning a circuit if the custom software is programmed to run the cpu at high clock, etc). So there's still a small chance, very unlikely, but small chance that a custom ROM can also damage a volume control, circuit-wise, or maybe the custom rom's programming might have a bug on the volume control (again very unlikely, but still a possibility). Unless if the cause of the volume problem is something obvious like the button itself is loose or falling off.

My suggestion is, if you have a nandroid backup of the original ROM before you installed the custom one, you can put it back first (the phone will still be rooted) then visit another Samsung store and just focus on telling the staff about the volume button. If in case they do a test on the volume, at least they would see a factory installed rom running. Just cross your fingers that they wont further check if it's rooted under the hood.
[Galaxy Note5 General] blackhemi4x4:
Nothing special. Once was a usb port issue. They asked of it was rooted and I simply said it doesn't matter, it was a hardware issue. I had to escalate and told them the same thing. I said I'm happy to pay if they can prove that a rooted device caused the malfunction. They keep to the script for the most part but I got my phone back, repaired, and no charge.

I threw in a few legal references to automotive warranties and modding and would hate to drag them down that road.
[Galaxy Note5 General] LiL_Assassin:
This is an old post but I'm going to put my two cents in and I know in going to get flamed, which is amusing to say. But it's clear. By every phone manufacture, you root the phone. You take the phone as is. It's lost the warranty. Now that if you find that something is wrong with the device hardware wise. You Made the choice to void it when you did the rooting process. The moment Knox became 0x1, yes it's hardware based. But that's besides the point. They tell you over and over again that doing so it voids your warranty and you do it anyway, you made the phone completely yours. And now it's yours 100%. I agree with Samsung on this.
[Galaxy Note5 General] the Doctor:
+1 :good:

Don't buy a Samsung device knowing that rooting will trip Knox and potentially void your warranty, then blame Samsung when you do. They didn't choose to root your phone for you. If you don't like the rules, buy a different device.
[Galaxy Note5 General] seh6183:
More complete morons who interpreted my post as a Samsung flame.

I also like how assassin thinks that every manufacturer voids your warranty from rooting. Man you guys are on it :good:
[Galaxy Note5 General] LiL_Assassin:
I knew I would get a flamed response. 1. I did not take your post as flaming Samsung but it still stands. Hardware or not. You voided the warranty, regardless of the issue. You cannot expect a claim back. Once you hit that accept button of the rooting process. 2. I know for a fact not at all manufacturers do. But most will. You need to learn to read and not just come back with a high and mighty response. That you think we all can't read. When you can't come to terms with the fact it's simple as that.
[Galaxy Note5 General] seh6183:
Please go study the english language for a few years and then come back to this thread and edit the post you just made so that we can start over.

Also please give me a detailed list of all manufacturers besides Samsung that void your warranty from rooting lol
[Galaxy Note5 General] LiL_Assassin:
See, you come back with a high and mighty response, you can't have a constructive conversation can you? You sound very much like the teenage girls that complain that there parents got them the wrong car and they hate them, why is it so hard for you to understand? Are you limited in that regard? But since you so wish it.

1. Samsung

2. Not android, but Apple with jailbreaking which is the equivalent of rooting.

3.Asus

4. Google (it has happened in the past but they are much much more relaxed about it now.

5. My friend was denied from HTC due to it.

Again. I am going to expect some silly ass response from you, but it's clear. You don't understand how it works. Go for a nexus or something that allows it. So you don't to make stupid posts like these again.
[Galaxy Note5 General] seh6183:
1.) I asked you to list manufactuers other than Samsung and the first one you list is Samsung LOL

2.) Apple doesn't void your warranty for jailbreakng, they have no hardware method implemented to detect it.

3.) Um what? Please enlighten me of which Asus product voids your warranty from rooting?

4.) Google? What are you even referring to here?

5.) Your friend was denied warranty from HTC due to being bootloader unlocked, which is NOT rooting just to let you know......

But since you barely know your first name I wouldn't expect you to know any of this.
[Galaxy Note5 General] LiL_Assassin:
1. Just to make sure that you understand that Samsung does. Because clearly you do not. Or having trouble accepting it.

2. Yes but some people tend to take phones that have been jailbroken that aren't untethered jailbreak and can't tell why it won't turn on.

3. You really have to question everything don't you? You asked,i told you. How about you Find out for yourself?

4. Google. Yes? Rooting phones and you had a issue with it. It did and still can cause you not to get a Warrenty claim back.

5. Point is it was still rooted and was denied.

I know my first name and I know a lot about you as well. Just from the simple fact you can't let this go. You got denied and can't understand why. Or not willing to accept it.. Or maybe you just want to make a splash. I really don't know what your reasoning is. But I'm glad you got denied. And I'm also glad you won't come back to Samsung because we won't ever have to deal with someone of your... Uh, rather inspiring nature.. I'm done replying with someone so simple minded. Let it go, that is all I can say. Not going to reply nor going to check for replies, so you can have a nice long reply as to why you are right. But Samsung and a lot of other people will agree with me. Have a nice day. Or night... Or don't.
[Galaxy Note5 General] seh6183:
Bye. Good luck in life, youll need it lol
[Galaxy Note5 General] ingenious247:
If you think you're the first person who's posted this "warning" and threatened to leave Samsung "forever", you're not. Bottom line is, you knew what the rules were, broke them because of a perceived "poor" performance from the best flagship phone ever built to date, and had to root/tweak your phone to make yourself feel better.

Now you want others to consider NOT buying what they would most likely consider the best phone they've ever had, because you think that simply because you didn't physically damage the phone's hardware, Samsung should make an exception for you.

When in reality, as far as I am concerned you don't know what you're talking about. I've been an Android enthusiast since the G1 days and have rooted, modified and tweaked nearly every phone I've ever had until the last three Samsung flagships (S6, Edge+ and Note 5). These phones SCREAM out of the box, have no issues whatsoever and the RAM management is completely acceptable IMO. I've seen the threads of people complaining about it, but honestly there's ZERO dip in performance/functionality. In fact, the last year or so is the first time I've ever decided I didn't need to root my phones.. all because Samsung's doing it right. There are many experienced modders who feel exactly the same.

I get sick of reading threads like this. So yeah, you get ^ that as a response.
[Galaxy Note5 General] seh6183:
So let me get this straight. You came into a thread specifically about a rooted, rommed, and custom kernel Note 5, but have never even rooted your Note 5? LOL Boy what an amazing contribution you have made today. So you literally have zero knowledge of this particular topic is what you're saying? And you feel your opinion is relevant? YOU KNOW NOTHING about the topic at hand. You're saying the ram management and lag is perfectly fine, yet just like I stated in the ORIGINAL POST, you probably wouldn't notice it if you had nothing to compare it to. You sir, were the people I was referring to. The "unaware".

I appreciate your attempt to come in here and shut the thread down with your badassery, but sorry neckbeard its not happening. You look ridiculous formulating an opinion that isn't based on fact. Next tell us about the monkey you saw fly, maybe we will believe what you have to say about that as well.

You know what the great thing is about "threads like this" that you are "sick of seeing"? You don't have to read them. So yeah, you get ^ that as a response.
[Galaxy Note5 General] dr.ketan:
I believe billion dollars company won't change their strategy for we "tiny rooted community" so rather than crying I have changed my strategy.

I have started buying note without bill and warranty. I am note user since Note1 and still own N2/3/4/5

I do root my device as soon as unbox device. (keep ready to root once note is available). If I am not going to get warranty why I should pay extra. This saves me 10 to 20 % and I can happily spend those when I have to pay if any paid services required.

BTW countless time I have played note series /soft bricked (may be nearly on top of any note user here) but still all are working without paying single penny.
[Galaxy Note5 General] Androidwizzard:
I'd really love to know where on earth this has happened cause in many countries you'll find something like consumer rights which could help getting the device repaired without costs - not by Samsung but from the seller.
[Galaxy Note5 General] seh6183:
United States. I heard it is more relaxed outside of the US as well, but here they gouge you for anything they can.
[Galaxy Note5 General] blackhemi4x4:
Why would the seller be responsible for a manufacturers warranty or defect? They are the middle man.

It should be between the end user and manufacturer.
[Galaxy Note5 General] Androidwizzard:
In Europe, where I live, we seemingly have different law - selling something is a contract between seller and buyer and the seller has to guarantee a flawless device sold (surprisingly same 2 years under certain circumstances).

Samsung warranty is a different thing - a voluntarily offer, which can be revoked when knox is tripped eg.
[Galaxy Note5 General] JasonJoel:
That's ridiculous. No wonder things are so expensive in Europe...
[Galaxy Note5 General] sand1303:
Actually sprint insurance has replaced every rooted phone i have given them with hardware issues. Much easier than going through manufacturer. Just stopped into a repair center and showed them the defect. New or refurb phone arrives in 2 days at my house with a return shipping envelope to send the old one back
[Galaxy Note5 General] blackhemi4x4:
Insurance is different than a manufacturer warranty. I'm just saying that no retailer should be solely responsible for manufacturer defects. Unless they offer a program such as insurance.
[Galaxy Note5 General] seh6183:
Is there a deductible?
[Galaxy Note5 General] the Doctor:
Again, +1.

I wish I had $1 for every Samsung "warning" thread I've seen like this on xda. We don't need them--they always start flame wars, and the warning already comes on the warranty card of every new Samsung device.
[Galaxy Note5 General] seh6183:
I'm convinced that not a single one of you complainers actually read my post. Maybe you read it but literally don't comprehend it. Either way, yea just go away because no one wants to hear from you lol Bye!
[Galaxy Note5 General] Amritttt:
I know i am gonna root my phone so i never buy any Android phone with warranty and is cheaper here if you buy a phone without warranty.
[Galaxy Note5 General] seh6183:
We don't have that option in the states.
[Galaxy Note5 General] Amritttt:
What really here in dubai you always get an option to buy with warranty and without warranty and there's like some $70 to $80 difference.
[Galaxy Note5 General] seh6183:
Yea everything is the same price and comes with a 1 year warranty by law. Companies are always looking for a way to "void" those warranties however. In this country when you buy a product, the company that sells it to you wants you to use it the way they want it to be used, not the way you want.
[Galaxy Note5 General] Amritttt:
Woow that bad anyway if this helps my brother broke his note 5 screen and got it fixed from some random mobile repair shop its working like charm and its been almost 3 weeks now everything is working fine haven't seen any issues with the screen or the glue or screen coming out of anything. So i would recommend go for a fix instead of buy a new phone.
[Galaxy Note5 General] MohamedRaafat:
I bought the note 5 2 months ago with warranty and it worked fine for three days until I started noticing a huge battery drain and after some research, I found out that deep sleep isn't working.So, I tried resetting everything and a couple of factory restores and still the problem persisted.The thing is that I bought the mobile from another country so to repair it under warranty, I would have to send it back with someone and that is tedious.Then I find out about that custom kernels fixes those problems so I rooted and fixed my mobile.Ironically, I had to root and violate the warranty to fix a Samsung's problem :D and I doubt that if I had sent the phone, they would have fixed the issue.I was originally planning to Root but was still thinking about it but this problem forced me to root and I can't say I am not happy rooted but I will definitely miss my warranty when my note gets damaged so it really would have been great if we could keep our warranties!
[Galaxy Note5 General] sand1303:
Only pay a deductible if its user caused failure like water damage or dropped (shattered screens) or lost/stolen. usually a 100-200 deductible depending on device. Hardware problems no deductible. Ive gotten plenty of phones replaced and never paid a deductible
[Galaxy Note5 General] bonerp:
The point is that Samsung make it very clear that rooting removes the warranty. End of. Its now gone wrong and you're pissed about it. Sorry mate, but that's your risk when you rooted it. Everyone can see that except you.

It doesn't make it morally correct - yes hardware faults have generally nothing to do rooting - yes you can turn up the power which could burn out components and maybe this is why they won't honour your claim!

I'd take the advice of others - reinstall the stock rom and try your luck with Samsung again. You may get away with it.
[Galaxy Note5 General] seh6183:
Can you please take a moment to explain to me, in detail, of how you came to the conclusion that I am "pissed" about not having my warranty? Please be thourough lol
[Galaxy Note5 General] bonerp:
Heres a summary....

sorry if I took it that you're pissed. Clearly you are totally ok with this situation.
[Galaxy Note5 General] seh6183:
Did you make it through grade school?
[Galaxy Note5 General] bonerp:
Clearly not. Why the personal insults?
[Galaxy Note5 General] seh6183:
I'm asking you a simple question. An insult is a statement. For example if I said, "wow, you are so stupid, it seems like you never even made it through grade school with your ridiculous posts". You see, that would be an insult. I did not do that.

I was simply asking if you HAD made it through grade school. It was an honest question. I wanted to be able to adjust my way of speaking based on your education level.
[Galaxy Note5 General] bonerp:
You really are a ****.
[Galaxy Note5 General] seh6183:
I just dont put up with any crap lol on the forums or real life. If you want to have a respectful conversation lets do it. However if you come in here Billy badass trying to show me I'm stupid or wrong, well it's just not going to work out for you lol

My post was politely written and was meant to just share an experience. Not to bash Samsung or come in here crying and whining. I was sharing my experience and thats it.
